Using a mixture of different items such as, wire, cans, fabric and yarn i created a hand made textured woven structured, which i then painted in gouache, following this i then made a more abstract version of it and used mark making and ripped papers to represent it.

About Me

I have just completed a Textiles course at Manchester Metropolitan University, specializing in woven fabircs, i am inspired by all forms of nautral textures to create my work, develop and translating these textures through into my woven samples using wool and silk yearns, experimenting with different finishing to create collapse weaves. if you would like any more information then feel free to contact me.
